Our Take

Boston Symphony Orch goes big and bold with their latest release, Shostakovich's Symphonies Nos 4 & 11. Just like a cup of English breakfast tea, this album is steeped in history and tradition, with a quirky twist that only this acclaimed orchestra can deliver.

Symphony No. 4 kicks things off with a bang, literally. Shostakovich's signature use of percussion and brass instruments creates a cacophony of sound that is both exhilarating and chaotic. It's like being on a rollercoaster ride in a thunderstorm, but in the best way possible.

On the flip side, Symphony No. 11 takes a more contemplative approach. The orchestra delicately weaves together haunting melodies and stirring rhythms to create a sonic tapestry that is both beautiful and haunting. It's like taking a leisurely stroll through a foggy London park, with just a hint of mystery in the air.

Overall, Boston Symphony Orch's rendition of Shostakovich's Symphonies Nos 4 & 11 is a must-listen for any classical music aficionado. It's a bold and captivating journey through the genius of one of Russia's greatest composers, and a testament to the orchestra's unparalleled talents. So make yourself a cuppa, sit back, and enjoy the ride. Cheers, mate!
